Thanks for your inputs.

Yes sure!

> - Which version of QGIS do you most regularly use? it lacks an option for those that use a release < LTR (and they are many)

I changed the second to say ‘NON LTR release’ hopefully that makes it clearer.

> - How often do you think LTR QGIS versions should be made? Miss a "don't care” option

That can go in the ‘other’ box

> - How often do you think non LTR releases of QGIS should be made? Miss a "don't care” option

Again please just use the ‘other’ box for this.

> - When I get stuck using QGIS, I..... ask... What about forums other than stackoverflow? something as georezo.net <http://georezo.net/>, forumsig.org <http://forumsig.org/> not only focused on QGIS but QGIS has its place? Are they among what's called regional QGIS  User group? And what about going back to the documentation as an option?

I added ‘Other for this’ - I don’t think I can make an exhaustive list

> - Which is your highest priority for spending QGIS funds on ? I d'on't know if google sheet can do that but it would be nice to classify them by priority. And also miss a "don't care”

No I couldn’t find a way to do priority lists so went for the ‘pick the most important’ approach.

> - About donation, is "giving time to the project" (testing, reporting and fixing bugs, documentation) considered as donation? Or is it just about money?

I added a note to say you can also donate time.

Well the purpose of the survey is to know people’s point of view and hopefully prod them to think about these things too :-)

Thanks very much for your feedback - much appreciated!

We have compiled this short survey, and would be most appreciative if you could take a few minutes to complete it for us. All responses are anonymous and we will share the results with the community so that we can all benefit from the insights gained. You can find the survey here:
